Layered Greek Dip

Layered Greek Dip – a fresh Greek twist on the classic 7 layer dip. Easy, make ahead with hummus, tzatziki, tomatoes, crisp cucumber, briny kalamata olives, feta and dill.

This is one of my favorite party dips. I’ve made this delicious dip so many times and the combination of flavors of the Mediterranean make it a consistent hit.

It’s an easy recipe you can make ahead of time and when guests arrive serve with some warm pita bread. . . oh and did I mention – it’s one of my favorite appetizer recipes?

 

I could make a meal out of appetizers – with this tasty Greek Layered Dip at the top of the list. Some warm naan or pita bread and that’s pretty much all I need. Oh – maybe a glass of wine too!
